Dust Storm‐Enhanced Gravity Wave Activity in the Martian Thermosphere Observed by MAVEN and Implication for Atmospheric Escape [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Lower atmospheric global dust storms affect the small‐ and large‐scale weather and variability of the whole Martian atmosphere. Analysis of the CO2 density data from the Neutral Gas and Ion Mass Spectrometer instrument on board NASA's Mars Atmosphere ...

Synoptic Causes and Socio-Economic Consequences of a Severe Dust Storm in the Middle East
Atmosphere, 2021 Dust storms represent one of the most severe, if underrated, natural hazards in drylands. This study uses ground observational data from meteorological stations and airports (SYNOP and METARs), satellite observations (MODIS level-3 gridded atmosphere ...

Asian dust-storm activity dominated by Chinese dynasty changes since 2000 BP
Nature Communications, 2020 The Asian monsoon (AM) played an important role in the dynastic history of China, yet it remains unknown whether AM-mediated shifts in Chinese societies affect earth surface processes to the point of exceeding natural variability. Here, we present a dust

Detection of a Dust Storm in 2020 by a Multi-Observation Platform over the Northwest China
Remote Sensing, 2021 Dust storms have occurred frequently in northwest China and can dramatically reduce visibility and exacerbate air quality in downwind regions through long-range transport.

Dust, Sand, and Winds Within an Active Martian Storm in Jezero Crater
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Rovers and landers on Mars have experienced local, regional, and planetary‐scale dust storms. However, in situ documentation of active lifting within storms has remained elusive.

The Atmospheric Drivers of the Major Saharan Dust Storm in June 2020
Geophysical Research Letters, 2020 This study investigates the atmospheric dynamics of the major dust storm that occurred in June 2020 over the Sahara and during which dust clouds associated with the highest‐on‐record aerosol optical depths were transported toward the America.
